While we were in Ukraine adopting Valya and Sergey, another South Dakota family got to know us through our blog and met us at the Sioux Falls airport at
our homecoming on Feb. 15, 2009. They are Erick and Joni Weber and they live about a 1-1/2 hour drive from us. In this picture, you can see me meeting Joni for the first time, with Erick and their son Misha looking on. Misha was adopted from Ukraine in Spring of 2008.

We talked by phone and emailed alot as they worked through their paperwork for their next adoptions, and now they are in Ukraine. You can follow their journey on
their blog here. How exciting!
